Elgin Industries offers Elgin PRO-STOCK push rods that are manufactured from aircraft-quality 4130 seamless steel tube with wall thicknesses of 0.137-inch (3/8-in. diameter rods) and 0.106-inch (5/16-in. diameter rods).

The rods provide the stiffest tubular-constructed push rods in the performance industry, says Elgin. By comparison, conventional one-piece performance push rods feature 0.080-inch wall thickness.

The push rods also feature:

* Radius ends hard-turned following heat treatment for strong surface-shape profile tolerance and finish;

* 220-degree radius ends for increased rocker travel;

* Fully hardened within Elgin’s heat-treat facilities for extreme wear resistance and strength;

* Centerless ground for unsurpassed geometric precision; and,

* Corrosion-resistant black oxide coating formulated for performance applications.
